With the RC it comes with drop brackets, not sure about ZONE

 

The zone didn't.

 

how sure are you? it also looks a lot like a skyjacker or RC

I like my lift. however my aal are sagging after 3+ years. I trimmed my fenders but would still like a little more clearance. would adding shackles or blocks ruin my driveline angle or would i be ok? I am looking to add coil spacers in the front too? any advice as far as gettin a little more clearance without messing up the xj or braking the bank? thanks

 

Shackles will make your leaves sag even worse, but you will get a bit of lift. But shackles do naturally rotate your axle to give a better driveline angle.

 

a better angle huh? that's good i guess. more sag for a little lift, i could live with that. so better go with shackles rather than blocks?

 

Always

 

x2. Shackles are good, as long as you don't go ridiculously long. Blocks are just plain bad.

 

Times a billion. Dont dont blocks. Its a poser truck thing. Not a offroad machine thing

 

Plus shackles increase flex and you can use a leave with less arch.

 

I have a bastard pack I've been putting together. Rear S10 leafs and shocks and front tbird coils. Im currently on a very right budget. Where would be a good place for cheap front shocks?

 

Here is a good place " http://www.roughcountry.com/shocks-s...FQWDhwodWmMKsg with low prices and there is a discount for CF members

 

my leaf springs are straight.thinking about a block to help until i can afford new springs.i have read,though,that new springs give too stiff of a ride.will blocks help the ride,and will new springs make the ride too stiff?

 

Go with shackles instead of blocks. Shackles can improve your suspension while blocks can potentially be harmful.

 

New springs are a good thing. Add-a-leaf (AAL) lifts give you a stiff ride and generally don't last long. If you can't do springs for some reason, shackles are better than blocks.
